Headline: “The [PA] mufti warned against the consequences of the attack on the sanctity of the mosques and churches”
“[PA] Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and the Palestinian Territories and preacher at the Al-Aqsa Mosque Sheikh Muhammad Hussein warned against the dangerous consequences of desecrating the sanctity of the mosques and churches in holy Jerusalem… (possibly refers to Israeli measures to collect taxes on church-owned properties in Jerusalem, not churches themselves; the proposed measures were later frozen –Ed.) He also again emphasized the need to invest the greatest efforts in order to come to the Al-Aqsa Mosque and strengthen the presence there to defend it, while emphasizing our people’s adherence to their mosque regardless of the price and sacrifices that this will require.”
